Thank you! Much appreciated!

[@lauriepadecky8055]

Thank you so much I was wondering about these!

[@fountainPENdulum]

You are so welcome! I've been curious about Sailor's fude nibs for a while, this was a great opportunity! I rant like the Fude effect!

[@zebratroopfan6695]

Is the ink feed interchangeable with other feeds in the Hocoro line? In other words could you purchase the fude pen and then use that feed with the fine nib?

[@fountainPENdulum]

Yes, my understanding is the reservoir/feed that comes with the Fude is the same that Sailor sells separately which can be used with any of the nibs within the Hocoro Dip Nib line.

How do you compare this Sailor dip pen with the Kakimori steel/brass nib? Thanks for this interesting video 😊

[@fountainPENdulum]

I'm actually planning to do a comparison video because I considered the same thing. It really depends on what you're trying to accomplish. So far, I'd say that the Kakimori Dip pen is more beneficial for swatching to me, and the Hocoro is better for actual writing. They both hold a generous amount of ink (for being dip pens) where you could get a good half page of writing on a B5 sheet.
